I've always assumed that the word "normie" was specific to a general philosophy or community. So there are people who are normies relatively to bitcoin but are relatively awake and aware about the dangers of centralized control, etc. Relative to the lockdowns and mandates, "normies" are those who truly believe that public health officials have the best interests of the public in mind (as my grandmother would say "oh, bless their hearts").

There's obviously a lot of overlap in those two examples but I'm sure this concept is used in a lot of communities. As someone who's very happily married and sees the benefits of monogamy, I'm sure I'm considered a normie by everyone in polyamorous communities.

All which is to say - I bet we're all normies but in different ways and to different people.
